An Asset
And then. of course. there was the business man who had a hacking cough, but wouldn't do anything about it because it always kept the life insurance salesman from bothering him.
She Misunderstood Hrm
When the news went round that Bill, who was notoriously poor in purse and moreover lisped terribly, was going to marry one of the best looking girls in that entire farming territorl, the countryside was agog, wondering how Bill ever induced her to accept him, he being only a poor farmer, and she a most ambitious girl. So, when he dropped into the corner grocery and a gang of his old cronies asked him to explain the mystery, he had this to say:
"You thee, it wath thith way. I had been going to thee her for thum time, but wathn't getting nowhere, and I made up my mind to thay thumthing or busth my thuspenders trying. Tho one night I that down by her and thee began telling me how much property her father had, how many theep and cowth and hogth and all thuch, an I jest set thill an lithened. Finally I thaid-'Lithie, I ain't ath rich ath your pap, but got thix thows an pigs on my farm.' Then thee fell on my cheth an I knowed thee wath mine. You thee, thee thought I thed thix thousand pigs, but I only thed thix thows and pigs. Thee?"
Commonplcce
"A commonplace life" we say as we sigh, But why should we sigh as we say?
The commonplace sun in the commonplace sky Just makes up the commonplace day. The moon and the stars are commonplace things, And the fower that blooms and the bird that sings, But dark were the world, and sad our lot, If the flowers failed, and the sun shone not, And God, who studies eaCh separate soul, Out of commonplace lives makes His wonderful whole.
Misunderstood
Fanny was thoroughly angry at her swimming instructor. She said to her friends:
"The fresh thing ! After I won the swimming race he came up to me and said, "My dear, you kept up your end magnificently.'"
Diflerent-Much Different
Tie women's bridge club was recessing for tefreshments, and while the eating and drinking was going on the anvil ' chorus took up some special work, and some of the more recent town scandals were dragged into the open for discussion.
Asked one: "And have you heard about that blonde secretary in the Jones Insurance Agency? They tell me that she makes just twenty dollars a week, yet she lives in a wonderful apartment, drives a car that cost three thousand dollars. and is one of the best dressed women in this town."

The straight-laced old maid listened to this recital with all ears. She burst out:
"Well! As I live!"
And the other one said: "Oh, no Sister! NOT AS YOU LIVE!"
This Was An Incident
The doctor told him he was discharged cured, and handed him his bill. I.t was a very modest bill, considering that he had set and cared for a broken leg, a fractured arm' a sprained ankle, sewed up his scalp, fixed up his nose, done some skin grafting, and healed a lot of miscellaneous bruises and bumps. The patient looked at the bill and said:
"Doc, you've been mighty good to me and done a fine job all the way through. Wouldn't be surprised if you saved my life. All that worries me now is I don't know when I'll be able to pay you."
The Doctor said r "Why, you told me when you, first came in here that you had six hundred dollars in the bank."
The patient said: "I have Doc, but I'm' saving that for an emergency."
